Shopping for Calipers

Hey

I'am looking for two rear calipers for the Zs 180. My garage can source one for 80 quid but I thought I could get them cheaper online.

However am struggling to find a decent website, most of them by the time they add "tax" or a "surcharge" come to over a 100 for one and that tends to be refurbished ones.

Am sure a stumbled on a website with new ones but they wanted something like 230 for one, is this right?

Rugby Rover on ebay were doing good deals for a pair of new rear calipers, don't have a link sorry.

I've used him a few times, as have some other forum members, a good seller in my experience, I don't usually recommend anyone I haven't used cos there's a few cowboys about.
